gang,

I am trying to learn more about this agpgart stuff, and not finding much
info.

I replaced my agp vidio card with an S3/virge gx2.  The old one listed
the agp aperture value in /proc/pci, but the new one does not.  

I have kernel 2.4.17 compiled with aperture size=64M (the old value),
now my dmesg says:

agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 204M

?? Do i need to change the value of agpgart, to what? ??

XFree4 seems to run fine as is, but is there an adavantage to tweaking
the aperture value? (disadvantage?)

aloha,
dave
